Hi - I am hoping you all can help me. I don't have much to go on but this part of a song has been stuck in my head for days.
It is an early - mid 80's dance song. The only part that I can remember goes "bring it on the left, bring it on the right, bring it on". That "bring it on" part may be "keep it on the left, keep it on the right, etc". I think it was a somewhat popular song as they played it in most clubs back in the mid 80's.

Thanks so much !!

It could be the Don Henley song:  Dirty Laundry?  Do the rest of the lyrics ring a bell?



I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something-something I can use
People love it when you lose,
They love dirty laundry

Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here
I just have to look good, I don’t have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry

Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down
Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down
Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down
Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em all around

We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who
Comes on at five
She can tell you ’bout the plane crash with a gleam
In her eye
It’s interesting when people die-
Give us dirty laundry

Can we film the operation?
Is the head dead yet?
You know, the boys in the newsroom got a
Running bet
Get the widow on the set!
We need dirty laundry

You don’t really need to find out what’s going on
You don’t really want to know just how far it’s gone
Just leave well enough alone
Eat your dirty laundry

Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down
Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down

Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down
Kick ’em when they’re stiff
Kick ’em all around

Dirty little secrets
Dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybody’s pie
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry

We can do the innuendo
We can dance and sing
When it’s said and done we haven’t told you a thing
We all know that crap is king
Give us dirty laundry!

thanks !! but that wasn't it - the song that I am thinking of was definately more of a dance/club song

Now it's going to bug me!  Can you think of any more words?  I wish I could hear you hum it, or do I?  Jokes....LOL

I wish I could remember more of the words - that's why it's bugging me so much !!!

It was along the lines of White Lines, The Message,  Let the Music Play, etc. More dancy/club sounding than top 40ish.
I guess that's what happens when you have 20+ years of stuff going into your brain since I danced to that song - brain fried :)

I FOUND IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I FOUND IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's called Set It Off by Strafe !!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to everyone that helped !! Now I can get some rest :) :)

Oh yeah!  So can I!!!!! ;)
